Firewall

Answer 1

A firewall is a network security device that separates a trusted internal network from an external network considered untrustworthy. It analyses IP addresses, port numbers, and protocols to decide whether to allow or block specific data.

Question 2

Why is a firewall important?

Answer 2

Firewalls provide protection against outside cyber attackers by shielding your computer or network from malicious or unnecessary network traffic. This helps to ensure that only traffic considered safe and legitimate is allowed through the firewall.

Answer 4

A next generation firewall (NGFW) permits or blocks traffic between networks. NGFWs add advanced capabilities like a deeper inspection and intrusion prevention systems (IPS) to traditional data-filtering network firewall capabilities, making them better at detecting complex threats.

Question 5

Summary
